Each organism must inherit a single copy of every gene from each of its “parents.”
Gametes are formed by a process that separates the two sets of genes so that each gamete ends up with just one set.

Chromosome Number
Chromosome Number
All organisms have different numbers of chromosomes.
A body cell in an adult fruit fly has 8 chromosomes: 4 from the fruit fly's male parent, and 4 from its female parent.

Chromosome Number
These sets of chromosomes are homologous.
Each of the 4 chromosomes that came from the male parent has a corresponding chromosome from the female parent.

Chromosome Number
A cell that contains both sets of homologous chromosomes is said to be diploid.
The number of chromosomes in a diploid cell is sometimes represented by the symbol 2N.
For Drosophila, the diploid number is 8, which can be written as 2N=8.

Chromosome Number
The gametes of sexually reproducing organisms contain only a single set of chromosomes, and therefore only a single set of genes.
These cells are haploid. Haploid cells are represented by the symbol N.
For Drosophila, the haploid number is 4, which can be written as N=4.

Phases of Meiosis
Phases of Meiosis
Meiosis is a process of reduction division in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half through the separation of homologous chromosomes in a diploid cell.

Meiosis involves two divisions, meiosis I and meiosis II.
By the end of meiosis II, the diploid cell that entered meiosis has become 4 haploid cells.

Phases of Meiosis
Each chromosome pairs with its corresponding homologous chromosome to form a tetrad.
There are 4 chromatids in a tetrad.

Phases of Meiosis
When homologous chromosomes form tetrads in meiosis I, they exchange portions of their chromatids in a process called crossing over.
Crossing-over produces new combinations of alleles.

Phases of Meiosis
MEIOSIS I Telophase I and CytokinesisNuclear membranes form.
The cell separates into two cells.
The two cells produced by meiosis I have chromosomes and alleles that are different from each other and from the diploid cell that entered meiosis I.

Meiosis II
The two cells produced by meiosis I now enter a second meiotic division.
Unlike meiosis I, neither cell goes through chromosome replication.
Each of the cell’s chromosomes has 2 chromatids.

Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis
Mitosis results in the production of two genetically identical diploid cells. Meiosis produces four genetically different haploid cells.

Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis
Mitosis
• Cells produced by mitosis have the same number of chromosomes and alleles as the original cell.
• Mitosis allows an organism to grow and replace cells.
• Some organisms reproduce asexually by mitosis.

Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis
Meiosis
• Cells produced by meiosis have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
• These cells are genetically different from the diploid cell and from each other.
• Meiosis is how sexually-reproducing organisms produce gametes.
